Friends:
Evident yet
Subtle are the Facts of the Dhamma!
Dependent
origination becomes evident, when really
seeing & understanding:
When this exists, that also comes into being. The seed initiates the plant...
When this does not exist, that neither comes into being. No seed no plant...
Wrong view of annihilation becomes evident, when seeing and understanding:
All causes are connected with their resulting effect. Nothing just disappears!
Wrong view of eternity becomes
evident, when seeing and understanding:
All states arise instantly as new
phenomena. They were not there
before...
The characteristic of no-self
becomes evident, when seeing & understanding:
That all states have no core and that their being depends on other conditions.
The characteristic of impermanence
becomes evident, when understanding:
States rise & fall instantly.
After having been, they do never
exist again!
The characteristic of suffering becomes
evident, when comprehending:
All liked phenomena rise and fall.
Their inevitable loss is an oppressive pain.
When these several truths, all aspects of the dependent
origination, have
become evident to the Buddhist disciple, then constructions appear to him
as perpetually renewed: So all these
states, it seems, not ever having been,
come into existence and then immediately
cease... Vism
